Note that although the DOS version screen datafiles can be read, files cannot be saved in DOS format.The procedure for reading a DOS version screen data file is:[File] (main window menu) → [Import].For “Files of type”, select any of the following items according to the model of Support Tool used to create the screen data you are going to read.S M1S:Screen data for NT11SS M2S:Screen data for NT20SS M6S:Screen data for NT600SS G6S:Screen data for NT30, NT30C, NT620S, NT620C, andNT625CClick onafter selecting the folder and specifying the file name.The application manager of the read screen data will be displayed.Reference: For details of the PT models and types, the Support Tool can create screen datafor, refer to 1–6 “Usable Hardware Combinations”.63Operation of Screen Data (Application) File3-3-6Section 3-3Importing Components from Different Screen Data File (StartingUp the Second Support Tool)Select [Import Component] from [File] menu and you can start up the second Support Tool and open a different screen data file.
By reading out the different screendata files with the two Support Tools, data copying/pasting can be performed easilybetween the files.When you select [Import Component], dialog box to specify the file to be read isdisplayed. (For details of this dialog, refer to “3–3–2 Reading the Existing ScreenData (Application) File”.)After specifying the folder, file name and file type, click on. The second Support Tool starts up and the application manager of the read out screen datais displayed.Reference: S It is not possible to start up the second Support Tool from the [Start] button ofWindows (Error message will be displayed).
Be sure to select [Import Component] from [File] menu in the main window of the first Support Tool.S Copy/paste operation can not be performed between the two files if the PT modelof the two files is different. In this case, perform data conversion beforehand sothat the PT model setting of the copy source screen data matches to the settingof the copy destination screen data. (Selected PT model can be checked on thestatus bar.)S It is not possible to edit the same screen data file by two Support Tools. If you tryto read out the file which is already opened by the other Support Tool, error message will be displayed.S The second Support Tool can read out the screen data file regardless of the filetypes (onw, mmi).S When the second Support Tool is started, the windows of both Support Tools areautomatically resized into normal windows which overlap each other to facilitatethe copy operation between the files.S It is not possible to open one more Support Tool when two Support Tools are already started.64Operation of Screen Data (Application) FileSection 3-3S [Import Component] will not be displayed in [File] menu when no screen data isopened with the Support Tool.S Conversion of PLC address is executed when the PLC vendor (direct access) isdifferent between the copy source/destination screen data.S Conversion of key code is executed when the key code (font type) is differentbetween the copy source/destination screen data.S In case of numeral/string table and bit memory table, if the table size of copy destination is smaller than the size of copy source, excessive entries will be discarded.S To achieve higher performance , close the second Support Tool after you completed import operation.S It may take time to read out MMI file since data checking is performed beforeopening the file.Possible Operation between Two Support ToolsWhile screen data files of the same PT model are opened with the two SupportTools, following operations are possible.a.
Copying, cutting, pasting and drag&drop of a screen between application managers (multiple screens can be also handled). (Refer to 4–2–4)b. Copying, cutting, pasting and drag&drop of a table data between applicationmanagers (All the data in a table is handled, it is possible to handle a table individually or to handle multiple tables collectively.) (Refer to 4–2–9)65Operation of Screen Data (Application) FileSection 3-3c. Copying, cutting, pasting of a number/code between the following tables(Drag&drop is not possible).Between image tables (Refer to 8–1–1)Between library tables (Refer to 8–2–1)Between bit memory tables (Refer to 7–1–4)Between numeral tables (Refer to 7–1–4)Between string tables (Refer to 7–1–4)Between extended I/O output tables (Refer to 7–1–4)Between extended I/O input tables (Refer to 7–1–4)d.
Copying, cutting, pasting and drag&drop of objects between editing screens orlibrary editors. (Drag&drop can not be performed if the copy destination windowis hidden under other windows.) (Refer to 6–1–5)e. Copying, cutting, pasting of the specified area between image editors or markeditors (Drag&drop is not possible). (Refer to 8–1–2, 8–3–2)These operating procedures are same as normal operations of copy, cut, pasteand drag&drop on one Support Tool.66Operation of Screen Data (Application) FileSection 3-3Copying/Pasting an Object Which Contains Image/Library DataEven if a screen or an object which contains image/library data is pasted onto adifferent screen data file, image/library data itself is not copied.If you want to copy/paste an object which contains image/library data betweenscreen data files, you need to copy the image/library data referenced by the objectbeforehand.Ex: Copying/pasting a fixed–display image which references image code 0001while the contents of the code are different between the screen data filesAs shown above, image data to be displayed will vary even if both objects are referencing the same code, when the contents of the referenced image code are different between the screen data files.
(When no data is registered to the referencedcode,is displayed. )67Operation of Screen Data (Application) File3-3-7Section 3-3Using Method of Parts CollectionWith the Support Tool on CD–ROM, Parts Collection is supplied.In this section, using method of Parts Collection is described.Parts CollectionLamps and touch switches will be graphical and expressive parts when they arecombined with image/library data or image lamps. These graphical lamps andtouch switches are registered to the Parts Collection (Parts Collection for each PTmodel is provided).Using [Import Component] command, desired data can be copied/pasted fromParts Collection to the editing screen easily.Reference: S Parts Collection is supplied only for the Support Tool on CD–ROM. It can beinstalled by specifying “Sample Collection” when installing the Support Tool.S Parts Collection for NT11S, NT20S and NT600S is not supplied.S Parts Collection is created in MMI format.
It may take time to read out/save MMIfile.Operation ProcedureTo use the Parts Collection, follow the procedure below.Here, operations such as copying, pasting, drag&drop are not described in details.Please refer to 8–1, 8–2 and 6–1–5.(1) Open the screen data file to which you want to paste data from Parts Collection.(2) Select [Import Component] from [File] menu.(3) Dialog box to specify the file to be opened is displayed. Open the “SampleCollection” folder in a folder which Support Tool has been installed into.
Then,open the folder of the required PT model (see below). Select “Memory MapImage File (*.mmi)” as a file type.Parts Collection for each PT model is displayed. Specify the Parts Collection ofthe PT model same as the currently opened screen data file and click on.Second Support Tool starts up and the selected Parts Collection opens.(4) In the screen data file of Parts Collection, decide an object which you want toimport.68Operation of Screen Data (Application) FileSection 3-3(5) If the object contains image/library data, the image/library data should be copied between image/library tables beforehand by copy/paste operation. Followthe procedure below.Code number to be copied can be checked in the property of an object.
(Referenced image/library code is also displayed on the status bar for some objectwhen they are selected.)If image/library copying is not performed beforehand, display will not be as intended since the image/library allocated to the code is not copied even if theobject itself is copied.[Procedure]a. Open the property of an image lamp or image/library data to be imported andcheck the referenced image/library code.b. Select [Image Editor] or [Library Editor] from [Tools] menu and copy ([Edit] –[Copy]) the code to be imported on the image/library table.c. Open the image/library table of the screen data file of copy destination andpaste the image/library data which has been copied.This time, if the copy destination code number is different from the copy sourcecode number, display will not be correct when the object is pasted.
Register thebutton.same code number as copy source by pressing(6) Drag&drop the object which you want to import from the screen data file of PartsCollection to the screen data file of copy destination ([Copy], [Paste] in [Edit]menu can be used also).69Operation of Screen Data (Application) File70Section 3-3SECTION 4Application ManagerThis section shows how the application manager is used when checking the created data, copying screen data, setting a memorytable, operating a window.4-14-2What Is the Application Manager? .
